  1. Hello, everyone.
  2. My name is Donovan buried.
  3. This is Karen Saxons, Crim 4 96 Force.
  4. Today I'm discussing the inequalities produced by racial disparities and
  5. criminal justice system.
  6. Hopefully, everyone stand her on a free enjoying this semester.
  7. Let's go ahead and jump right into it.
  8. Now, once again, this paper is over the racial disparities
  9. within our core proceedings, police departments, similar institutions.
  10. And hopefully we can come with.
  11. We can come up with policy solutions that could be
  12. proposed and implemented, uh, to make this world a better
  13. place. Now we all know about the, um, George Floyd.
  14. Briana Taylor, Mike Brown Trayvon Martin situations.
  15. Wrongful death is wrongful convictions.
  16. Wrongful arrest, basically all from our courting systems.
  17. Police departments, governmental agencies.
  18. Some of these domains in our criminal justice system have
  19. racial disparities, which I prevailed, including our court systems and
  20. police departments.
  21. Deaths at the hands of the police.
  22. Let's go ahead and jump into that.
  23. Now Latinos and blacks suffer from or deaths at the
  24. hands of the police.
  25. Then, of course, there white, uh, their white counterparts Latinos
  26. have a risk between 0.8 and 1.4% while African Americans
  27. have a mortality risk between 1.9 and 2.4%.
  28. The lethal force by the police with the degree of
  29. reasonableness during police killings is higher.
  30. Basically, police officers are saying, you know, they felt threatened
  31. and this is why they had to shoot and kill
  32. someone or or or he had this.
  33. And this is why they had to shoot and kill
  34. someone. When a lot of times on on news channels,
  35. we also see how white counterparts approach officers with weapons
  36. on the officers.
  37. Give them ample ample amount of times too.
  38. Drop the weapon, you know, surrender and they still don't
  39. get shot and killed.
  40. Force between white police officers and non white civilian suspects
  41. occurred at a rate of 48%.
